This initiative is an extension of the long-term strategic partnership between Gulf Bank and the Kuwait Red Crescent Society, which has yielded numerous humanitarian and social initiatives and projects over the past years aimed at supporting various segments of society, particularly low-income families. These efforts have included providing humanitarian aid and contributing to various community and relief initiatives focused on these groups, reflecting both parties’ commitment to enhancing values of social solidarity and consolidating the culture of giving and volunteerism.
Following the reception of a delegation from the Kuwait Red Crescent Society, Ms. Najla Al-Eissa, Head of Marketing at Gulf Bank, affirmed the bank’s pride in its extended strategic partnership with the Kuwait Red Crescent Society, praising the society’s pioneering humanitarian and community role across various fronts, whether through its relief and humanitarian efforts within the State of Kuwait or its supportive initiatives for victims and those in need in many countries around the world.
She noted that the Kuwait Red Crescent Society serves as a model for humanitarian and volunteer work, given the high-quality services and initiatives it provides that contribute to strengthening social solidarity and consolidating values of giving and human solidarity. She emphasized Gulf Bank’s commitment to continuing cooperation with the society to implement further initiatives that serve the community and support the most vulnerable groups.
